Chapter: 2371

She had taken a few days off over New Year's to stay in Yanjing, and ever since then, she'd been thinking about Ye Chen nonstop. Today, after arriving at the airport this morning, she couldn't wait to come here and visit Xiao Churan, bringing gifts with her.

It was said that she came to visit Xiao Churan, but actually, it was because she wanted to take a look at Ye Chen.

It was said that she came to visit Xiao Churan, but actually, it was because she wanted to take a look at Ye Chen.

However, after arriving, she found out that Ye Chen wasn't even home.

Originally, Ye Chen had left for Japan due to an unexpected event just a few days ago and hadn't returned yet.

This made Dong Ruolan feel a bit disheartened, and her earlier high spirits quickly faded away quite a bit.

Just half an hour prior, Xiao Churan's family had kept her at home for lunch, but she was still hesitant, thinking that Ye Chen wasn't even at home, so staying at Xiao Churan's house for lunch would be just a waste of the opportunity to get close to Ye Chen.

She originally thought of saying no and waiting for next time to visit, but Xiao Churan's enthusiasm was too great, making it difficult for her to refuse.

But she never thought that before even finishing her meal, Ye Chen would have returned already!

So, at this moment, Dong Ruolan's eyes already shone with excitement as she looked at Ye Chen.

Xiao Churan and Ma Er saw Ye Chen return, naturally they were extremely happy.

Xiao Churan's painting association had been resting for these few days, and he spent every day facing Ma Er, feeling bored almost to death. Seeing Ye Chen return, he was naturally delighted.

As for Ma Er, she was even more thrilled, seeing Ye Chen and exclaiming excitedly: "Ah, my dear son-in-law, you've been away for so many days, it's like a dream come true! You don't know how much Mom has been thinking of you!"

As she spoke, her gaze couldn't help but look at Ye Chen's hands.

Ye Chen had gone out several times recently, always bringing back high-end gifts, so this time she was also eagerly anticipating what gift Ye Chen would bring back for her.

However, at this moment, Ye Chen's two empty hands looked like he hadn't prepared any gifts.

Ma Er felt a little disappointed in her heart, but didn't want to show it, because she had already undergone a fundamental change in her attitude towards Ye Chen.

She now felt from the bottom of her heart that Ye Chen was an excellent son-in-law.

Even if Ye Chen didn't bring back any gifts this time, apart from a slight disappointment, she didn't feel anything unhappy.

At this moment, Ye Chen also realized that he had come back in a rush and hadn't prepared any small gifts for Ma Er, so she would definitely be disappointed.

So, he walked up to Ma Er's side, sat down beside her, and laughed, saying, "Mom, I'm really sorry. This time, I originally wanted to buy some gifts for you at the airport, but suddenly a friend asked me to take his private plane back home, so I didn't have time to go shopping."

Ma Er hurriedly waved her hands, saying, "Oh my goodness, good son-in-law! As long as Mom is happy, what's the need to buy gifts every time?"

Ye Chen nodded and laughed, saying, "Mom, wait until tomorrow. I'll transfer 200,000 to you on WeChat. You can use it to buy something, and consider it a small thought from me."

Ma Er heard these words and was extremely excited, asking, "Oh my goodness, good son-in-law! Is what you're saying really true?"

Ye Chen laughed, saying, "Of course not? Mom, just wait a minute. I'll transfer the money over now." JrNovels.com
